in the advanced mission you're often told to kill an assault bot, but only assault I bots seem to count towards this, not a problem if this is the way it's supposed to be. I just wasn't sure if it was.

I have never been offered this mission. I only kill drone II until my eyes bleed.

how come you get to kill anything different?

Yes, it means Assault I - I fixed the typo, it'll be updated Soon.

randomize: You're told to kill different stuff when you get a higher license level.

Also, I added a Group combat training mission. So far, it seems like a lot more fun than the single player one. Give it a try. (just form or join a group, and sign up in your nation's home sectors.)

Thank you so much for the combat group missions. It's much more fun than botting alone. However, I may have found a potential exploit with it which I sent a description to you through the online bug reporter. May wanna check up on that.

Ya, I think group missions will be fun and I'll definitely give them a shot when the server comes back online.
Randomize, the missions change based on your lvl. You eventually start getting different bots every kill, which just results in you flying back and forth between 17, 11, 5, and a home sector really not something to look forward to. Additionally if you're high enough lvl docking causes you kill count to be set to 0 (which just for the record I've tested multiple times to make sure it works cause I think I'm the only person who can test it at this point, and it's working fine). You also get more xp, but no where near as much as the needed xp for lvls increases.
